Chicago hot dog near Wrigley Field

[silvermetal]

Hi all, I'm looking for a place to grab a decent Chicago style hot dog that is close to Wrigley Field. Will be at a Cubs game next Thursday, and I have read the hot dogs in the ballpark are not worth trying. So i'm looking for place within walking distance to Wrigley Field.

Thanks!

I disagree!
They are a little pricey, but as long as you can snag a pickle spear, you will be in great shape. I think the key is to be reasonable with the toppings and have some self control. There is so much stuff on there that less is more!

If I have the time before a game I always go to Murphy's. Its on Belmontjust west of Sheffield. Try the chargrilled foot long.

Murphy's Red Hots

Next time you want a dog before the game, try Wrigleysville Dogs. They're just north of Wrigley Field and you can bring the dogs with you into the park. I've written an article about it over at: http://www.examiner.com/x-14998-Chica...
